Chapter 376: Chapter 376: I indulge both you and your son

Even as we got in the car, the talkative little boy was still jabbering about the many exciting happenings on his first day of school.

"Mommy, guess what? My deskmate’s name is pretty funny, it’s Tai Chun." Sounds like ’Too Dumb’!"

In fact, the plump little kid’s real name is Tai Chun, but the little chap, despite being literate, insisted on mispronouncing it as "Too Dumb!"

"The school lunch wasn’t tasty, they only serve carrots, and I’m not a little rabbit..."

He dislikes carrots, and Chen Jing, at home, has always put lots of effort into creating various ways to make him eat more carrots.

"The bed for naps is so strange, they just throw mattresses and blankets on the floor, and everyone sleeps on a big bed together!"

In school, both the kindergarten and lower grades use communal beds to prevent children from falling off the bed.

Overall, from the perspective of Yan Xu on his first day of school, he was filled with curiosity about everything in school and found everything incredibly amusing and fun.

Zhu Qianying and Yan Xu, sitting on either side of their chatty child, found themselves feeling as if they were taken back to their own childhood as they listened to the little one’s stories.

"Baby, do you know what kind of bed your daddy slept on when he was your age?"

The little one, while savouring the chocolate ice cream Zhu Qianying had bought for him, blinked his bright shimmering eyes and shook his head.

"I don’t know."

"Daddy slept on a barrack’s bed!"

"Why?" Not only was the little one curious, Zhu Qianying was also scanning Yan Xu curiously.

"Daddy lived in Capital City with your great-grandfather back then. Great-grandfather wanted Daddy to grow up to be a very formidable general like him. So, instead of going to the kindergarten when Daddy was your age, he was in the barracks, training alongside the soldiers!"

Zhu Qianying had thought her own childhood was too miserable to reminisce about. However, after hearing Yan Xu’s account, she realized that even the successful eldest master Yan Xu, despite his prestigious reputation, did not ascend to his current statue without facing any hardship.

"Those whom God wishes to place in high positions must endure hardship, hardwork, and strong determination." These were the stories of those born with extraordinary talent like Yan Xu, who through relentless refining and hard work became outstanding individuals.

Although Zhu Qianying did not admire Yan Xu entirely, there was one thing she was certain about.

She has always known that Yan Xu, compared to the majority of the second-generation rich and officials, was different. At the very least, he was not unlearned and the dedication to his work was unmatched by ordinary people.

Zhu Qianying remembered a popular quote from the internet, "Despite being more talented than you, they work even harder; despite being richer than you, they manage their finances even better." This quote was particularly fitting for Yan Xu.

"Wow... That’s amazing, I also want to train in the barracks!"

The little one looked up at his father with his face full of admiration and envy.

Yan Xu, smiling, pinched the little one’s cheek, "That can be arranged, when you’re on summer break, Daddy will help you arrange it, and you along with your Brother Beibei and Sister Guoguo can go, sound good?"

At the sound of that, the little one was so thrilled that he hopped up, resulting in his ice cream leaping out of its box and landing on the seat in front."

His pride seemed to take the shape of mischief, which left Zhu Qianying torn between laughter and tears. She quickly grabbed some tissue to clean the stained seat and carpet. Yan Xu, however, ruffled her hair, "Ying’er, you don’t have to bother, we can always get the car cleaned later."

Zhu Qianying glared at him, "You are spoiling him..."

Yan Xu grinned, "I am earning all this money so that you guys can have a more comfortable life. He’s still a child, a little spoiling is fine."

Zhu Qianying was speechless.

Until now, Yan Xu never considered why he worked tirelessly every day.

Perhaps, it was all down to a sense of obligation.

This obligation, instilled in him from a young age, made his subconscious firmly believe that taking responsibility for the Yan and Tong families was his duty.

From eighteen years old until now, his sense of responsibility has remained unchanging.

However, now he suddenly realized his work, his career, in addition to being an inheritance, is also the guarantee for his wife and son’s future security.

While Zhu Qianying is more than capable of ensuring a high quality of life for herself and their son, he, as a father and a husband, cannot avoid his responsibilities on this basis.

"Of course, if you want to go a bit wild, like quitting your job and taking a break, maybe travel abroad, I will indulge you the same."

Yan Xu pulled out a wet tissue, reaching out to take Zhu Qianying’s hand. As he helped clean her dirty hands, he made this remark earnestly.

Zhu Qianying, who had just tossed the dirty tissue into the trash can, was suddenly caught off guard. Looking at him meticulously and considerately cleaning her hand, while uttering such romantic words, she felt a sudden warmth in her face.

It was both hot and burning!

The little one still had ice cream in his mouth, and now he was staring at his parents’ intertwined hands. He first looked at his father, then at his mother.

Daddy looked calm just like usual, but mommy...her face was as red as a monkey’s butt!

Could it be... mommy is shy?

The little one, mostly raised by Zhu Qianying, knew her personality very well, having never seen her act in such a way.

He took a spoonful of ice cream, his bright eyes rolled a few times, as if he understood something.

He pulled his feet onto the seat, sat up straight, and rested his body on the back of the chair. He focused all his attention on the big road and the traffic outside the car.

"I didn’t see anything...la la la..."

After mumbling with a chuckle, he started humming an off-tune song and swaying his little buttocks with the rhythm.

His actions and words made Zhu Qianying’s face even redder and hotter!

And Yan Xu had a faint smile on his lips.

He was happy for his son’s incredible transformation, and also Zhu Qianying’s shy response.

"Who has the intention of quitting their job? I can’t be that delicate. I still have a son and mother to support!" In order to cover up her embarrassment, Zhu Qianying grumbled and struggled to remove her hand.

Yan Xu was a major source of warmth, yet also a dangerous ticking bomb. It was better for her to keep her distance.

However, she never expected that Yan Xu, who was so arrogant that he seemed to disregard everyone else, could actually speak such affectionate, yet innocent words to someone.
